My tech guy said he would have to send it to Digitech to check
that stuff! :(
SO
I did some more tests...
I gave it a hard reset & didn't load any of my patches
into it. (I use Patch Dumper)
Also I didn't connect my control one.
Now before I reset, it went all wonky on me &
didn't recover even after it cooled down.
After resetting, (using the hold #1 method) I left it on to
try & recreate the abnormalities. (heating it up)
I had it on for about 6 hours straight with NO
PROBLEMS.
I proceeded to load up a whack of my patches thinking this may
cause the problems.
Maybe a corrupt file or something.
Another 6 hours & it's AOK!!
No problems, solid as a rock!!
This can't be a heat thing because it's been on for about over
12 hours straight!!
Tomorrow I'm going to plug in the C1 & see if I can get it
to go crazy again.
This has me baffled big time!

Sure enough after it cooled down it was fine.Now what I can't understand is why would it be heating up more now?I've used it hours on end without this problem for years before.Dieter by checking your below suggestions, would any of these causeoverheating & would the voltages have changed over the years from just getting old?Also, do I just take it in to my local music shop techy for these tests or do I need to send it to Digitech?ThanksSean----- Original Message -----From: Dieter WaechterSent: Sunday, September 29, 2002 1:46 AMSubject: Re: [gsp-2101] 2101 Freakin outHi!1. check the voltages of the power-supply!2. Check the hum- voltages of the voltages!!3. check the D-RAMS!Dieter----- Original Message -----From: Sean RobertsSent: Sunday, September 29, 2002 2:06 AMSubject: [gsp-2101] 2101 Freakin outGuys my 2101 has been crashing a lot more lately.You know, the scrambled text, leaving it totally inoperable.Sometimes I can get it back but sometimes I need to give it a hard reset.It could possibly be heat related, last night it went nuts on the last song of the set (thank God)After having it cool down on break it seemed fine. I had to reset the midi though.Could this be a battery issue? I've never changed the battery & have had the unit for Hmmwell since they first came out. (6-8yrs?)It's been well used, average 8-12 hours/week since I bought it.I'm just not sure it's a battery thing?These crashes have been getting progressively worse over the last 1-2 years.Before that it was solid as a rock & it's been in the same rack config the whole time.If it's heat related I'm just wondering why there was never a problem before?The only time it would crash before was from bad electric in the venues.Any help is greatly appreciated!ThanksSean Roberts
